Two Romanian villages were evacuated on Monday after a drone struck a Turkish-flagged tanker, setting it ablaze in southern Ukraine.
The MT Orinda was hit while offloading liquefied petroleum gas in a Ukrainian border city near Romania, sparking fires while more than a dozen workers were onboard.
The strike came the day after Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky signed a deal to import energy resources through the area of the strike.

Taking on Citizens United
"Hawaii just made history, becoming the first state in the nation to effectively ban dark money in elections. The new law takes a novel approach: rather than trying to restrict corporate speech, it redefines the powers corporations have in the first place — and political spending is not among them. The strategy, known as the “Corporate Power Reset,” was developed by Tom Moore of the Center for American Progress. And at least a dozen states are now working toward passing similar laws."

How simple. States grant corporations power to operate in their borders, states can decide what powers corporations are granted in their states. SuperPacs can still operate, but they can only accept money from individuals, and they have to publicly name those individuals.
Interestingly, the law passed unanimously in one house and 52-1 for it in the other.
Expect legal challenges against it.
